School Based Traineeships:

It is possible to complete a traineeship while you are still at school.
In a School Based, Part Time Traineeship, you complete your Traineeship part time and complete
your VCE or VCAL as well. A school based, part time trainee must complete the same number of
hours of work and training that a full time trainee is expected to complete (normally 1200-1600 hours)
they just do it over a longer period of time.

You would normally work with your host employer for between 5-7 hours per week, plus some time
in the school holidays.
